The confusion here was caused by your question "Name a GM who has done a better job in the last 3 years?". I can see your honesty but I hope you understand why people don't agree with the fairness of the question.

Ujiri has done a better job in the last 3 years because he's been a GM for only 3 years. Hypothetically, lets say we're in 2016 and Ujiri has had losing seasons between 2013 and 2016. What would you do then? Pick the best GM of the 3 years preceding 2016? What if none of the available GM's have winning records in the 3 years preceding 2016?

The question should be "Name an available GM who has a better record than Ujiri?".

Do you have an answer for that question, or are you just patrolling the forums to see if anyone asked questions that don't fit hypotheticals?

Ujiri put that entire roster together. How can you not give him the credit? He turned Melo into Gallianri, Chandler, Felton, Koufos, Mozgov, and a 2014 1st round pick. He then turned Felton into Andre Miller. He also turned Aaran Afflalo and that 2014 1st round pick into Andre Igoudala. They also have the right to switch 1st round picks with the Knicks in 2016. In addition, he drafted great late round vale nabbing Farried and Fournier. The Nene for McGee swap was a nice way to make the team younger while shedding salary. Name another GM that has been that impressive the past 3 years.

I think the Melo situation was good enough of an indicator to see he has a good eye for talent, and can get the best out of any situation. To summarize, Afflalo to Iguodala is amazing, seriously. One player (Melo) turning into multiple assets, and drafted well in their recent past positions.

If Ujiri was handed the Bargnani situation, I'd have no concern on what type of players/contracts/assets we are receiving.

Don't go for it MLSE...go after another GM, i have an ominous feeling about this.

Ujiri made made some fairly good trades but Denver as it is now are a pseudo-contending team that are aesthetically pleasing to watch. I want someone who will build through the draft and ditch Bargs, Lowry and Gay.

BC to be Kept?

Just got a PM on Facebook from an old BB buddy proclaiming his disgust that BC is to be kept on in a none basketball role. Actually he said "The Raptors had the opportunity to shed this franchise of that fool GM and they decide to keep him in a 'non basketball role'?"

Can't find any announcements, but I can state categorically that my friend is not an acid head.

I have no words. Build AGAIN through the draft, wow. I guess then Seattle can come and take Raptors away from us.

Exactly. Ujiri is the kind of guy that could turn Bargs into a few role players and a late draft pick.

By stating a hypothetical situation, I was trying to help you see what caused the confusion. I'm trying to be helpful not difficult.

I see from your comment above you were in favor of keeping BC. Are you upset now that he's been officially removed from the GM role? Now that he's out of the way, who do you want them to hire to replace BC as GM?

Sounds like a placeholder until BC gets a new GM gig somewhere else. Thankfully it's non basketball related so no more worrying about BC messing things up. We can blame the new GM for all future mistakes.

What Ujiri did with Denver was pretty damn amazing in my opinion. If Gallinari was healthy it could easily be Denver in the Western Conference finals. You blow it up guys are getting ridiculous. How many #1 draft picks do we need to be able to beat Miami? With your plan maybe we can contend when Lebron retires in 10 years.....
